Last year's Denver Founder Institute graduated 15 strong companies, thanks in large part to great Mentors like Jim Franklin (CEO of SendGrid). Jim is taking a larger role in the 2011 program, co-leading the semester with Jon Nordmark (Founder of eBags.com).

Below is a video and slidedeck from Jim's training session on Startup HR. In it, he describes the ideal roles that need to be filled in a startup, how to divide founder equity and options across your company, and how hiring and firing based on values is key.

Learn more about the Denver Founder Institute, and recruit potential co-founders at our free "Denver Pitch Bootcamp" event this Tuesday evening, April 19th. Space is very limited - register today at http://denverpitchbootcamp.eventbrite...
